Hey everyone, get excited and possibly overanalyze this! Grant Morrison‘s Batman, Inc. series, which launches in October, will put the yellow oval back onto Batman’s costume.

I trust Christopher Nolan as a director, and with a cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Ellen Page, Cillian Murphy, and Michael Caine, who could say no to Inception? The problem is that immediately after watching the trailer, I was overcome with two warring emotions. 1) An interest in the film. 2) The knowledge that I had been tricked into being interested in the film, because I still had no idea what it was about.
Thankfully, Geoff Boucher at The LA Times has revealed just enough about the movie’s plot to make the trailer more coherent and make me feel a little less like a victim of a Jedi mind trick.

DC’s announcement yesterday that they would release a limited-run, $250 statue of Superman fighting Muhammad Ali in homage to their classic 1978 comic book counter has stirred up a surprising amount of nostalgia from comic book fans. Hero Complex’s Geoff Boucher: “I own about 9,000 comic books but ask me to pick my single favorite and I don’t need to think twice. It’s “Superman vs. Muhammad Ali,” which (despite the smirk-inducing title) was a world-class knockout when it arrived in the fall of 1978 and remains an enduring classic all these years later.”

Geoff Boucher has an interview with Christopher Nolan about his Superman project in today’s LA Times where the acclaimed director very carefully says absolutely nothing of substance about his Superman project.
Asked if Superman as a franchise has to overcome a deficiency of truly great villains, unlike, say, Spider-Man and Batman, he won’t bite. “That’s a very sly way of asking a question I’m not going to answer.”
Touché, Mr. Nolan, touché. However, he did say a number of definitive things about his third Batman movie, which is currently in the script-writing stage:

The comic-blogosphere has been abuzz lately, with everyone trying to figure out the purpose behind the guerilla marketing campaign “Stan’s Back!” Ads in comics newspapers and online featured simple white text on a black background, with the first word written in imitation of Stan Lee‘s distinctive signature.
Speculation stopped yesterday, when Boom! Studios announced that they were behind the ads. They are collaborating with Lee to create three new superhero series. Lee will produce and create the character concepts, but the titles will be written by other writers, the first of whom is confirmed to be Mark Waid.
